[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I think we are getting sidetracked with WSU.  I didn't ask the question who WSU was, but I wasn't sure either.  Then someone asked if it was Washington State and someone else took that to be a sarcastic comment vs simply asking if that was the college they were talking about.  I wasn't sure if WSU was Wichita State University, Washington Statue University, or something else.  So please, lets all calm down and get back on topic.[/quote]

JMU looks at grades, test scores, ECs, etc like every other college. It is test optional this year, like most, but will consider test scores if you send them. I would say almost all schools in the US look at the whole package. Schools overseas do not care about extracurriculars. [/quote]

Someone on another thread said that JMU only looks at grades, and their website seems to back that up.  They state "Our application review focuses primarily on high school courses and grades. These two factors are the most consistent indicators of academic success in college."  Everything else is listed as optional.
